Just a quick one!

This is just a quick post.  I am headed to Pennsylvania this weekend to celebrate my grandson's third birthday.  It should be a fun (if not relaxing) time!

I am still playing with mokume gane.  I just love this technique.  As you slice away the layers, it is like opening a wonderful surprise package!  The first ones have a jungle look I think.  The lavender series was designed to go with the blouse shown in the picture.  I prefer more contrast, however, this does match nicely.

 

Put this necklace on before, but I have been practicing with lighting and camera settings.  I believe this is a better photo
